Re: Do I need an editor?

Author: Gary Kessler

No, especially if you already have a hook of previous industry interest in the work as you describe, there's really no reason to seek your own edit before submission. Let the publisher pay for editing. If it keeps coming back with evidence that something is standing in the way of acceptance that might be helped if you had someone of your own work it over, consider seeking your own editing help at that point.
